Bortolini (toe) did not participate at practice Tuesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports. Coach Shane Steichen downplayed the injury, saying Tuesday that he doesn't expect Bortolini to miss an extended amount of time. Until he's back, Mike Panasiuk could see more reps at center during practices.
Bortolini suffered a toe injury Saturday in the Colts' preseason win over Arizona, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports. Bortolini didn't end up returning after the injury, but he said after the game that he doesn't think the issue will keep him out long, per Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star. The rookie fourth-round pick is expected to be a backup on the offensive line during his first NFL campaign.
